Dude you wish this does not need to be used in your country. You will pray it stops when it is in your country. Coming from someone who's country need's this.

Road-control units were also a thing in mountainous Greece during and after WW2, although those were often attached to larger units because there was the expectation that they'd face an actual army and not just insurgents/guerrillas.
My man is explaining the TO&E of Mad Max armies and I'm here for it. On a serious note, these minor armies videos are far more entertaining than their main powers counterparts, I hope we get more of them.
Colombia is a lot like Afghanistan. Over there, mountains have always kept any central government from fully exercising authority. Even if an area is connected via road, there might be weather or landslides that disconects it for periods of time. So you do get a set up for only lose central control, growing opium, war lording. Colombia has similar problems but with the combo mountains and jungle. You end up with parts of the country that exist outside of central authority. Colombia was the second country in the world to develop a commercial airline. It did not have the wealth and industrial capacity you'd associate with that achievement but it had the need. It was easier to link areas of the country via air than roads.
Avianca (formerly SCADA, is just months older than KLM, the dutch airline which is the oldest active in the world), SCADA started operations using the rivers of Colombia as a good number of them have wide and long parts that allows them to be use as airports.
Mistakes were made like abandoning trains and replacing them with trucks, that on top of limited inversion on roads achieve this piss poor land communication between the center of the country and the coasts.
@@VivaCatatumbo973pasa porque quiero saber más, he visto mucho sobre la historia de la guerra desde el lado civil y desde la política pero el lado de operaciones y logística militar es bien interesante.

@@ernstschmidt4725 Jungle mountains sounds like India's North-Eastern states. Maybe the Assam Rifles should look into this. And the Indian Army as well, although they got much bigger fish to fry.
With undercover scout cars and civilian disguised armored trucks, I expect military intelligence is very important. Does the new Cavalry organization have an organic intel section of any type?
Yes. That's what the Barinas are for. The air force would also fly recon sorties and relay that info to army units since most of the rebels don't really have air defense other than 50 cals
Yes, they do have at least one, in the Medium Combined Arms Task Force (FUTAM) located in La Guajira there are several SIGINT vehicles, along with several optronic vones
If they drive around in civilian looking cars, won´t that make their opponents more suspicious of civilians, and potentially put civilians at an increased risk?
All sides have targeted civilians due to the irregular nature of the conflict, sometimes more, sometimes less (see the fals positives scandal, the guerrilla kidnappings or the paramilitary massacres). Fortunately it's much safer nowadays in most of the country, but there are a few regions where the conflict persists
I remember first coming across an armored REO when I was traveling from Cucuta to Bogota, the army would make us all disembark the bus and check our IDs, since I was a minor they left me alone so I could oogle the truck while waiting to resume our trip. Oh and fun fact: It’s rumored the Meteoro name comes from the Spanish version of Speed Racer, the old 80’s anime which was highly popular in the country.
I find road as statebuilding tool and how one fight their way through to make them work very fascinating. On a side note, similar thing happened to Thailand in late 60s and early 70s, where the government (finally) realized they need proper road infrastructure to effectively govern the mountainous rural areas after the communist party declared their own revolutionary government in those regions That's why, somewhat in a reverse of normal maneuver and mobility role, infantry and tanks shot their way up through insurgent strongholds with M113s, M41s, and armored bulldozers supported (in a classic Vietnam war fashion) by UH-1 gunships and F-5s, for the engineers to build roads behind them. Whether they succeeded? Well, those are all scenic roads for tourists nowadays
@@Pavlos_Charalambous I'd imagine that depends on the threat environment if you've been focusing on doing other things for the last 100 or so years, it might take time to 'rediscover' those knowledge in the late 19th and early 20th century, cities are where modern political-economic activities mostly occur, even rebels and revolutionaries of any significant scale are formed in cities - hence the focus on putting them under the grasp of national authorities via *railways and telegraphs* - not paving random roads to the jungles in the middle of nowhere
The comando 60mm mortar is made by indumil, they make 3 versions of it, a comando type, a standard base plated one, and a long tube long range one with several HE grenade types, the bad part is that they do make 81 and 120mm grenades but not the mortar tubes/launchers
That's one hell of a "highway patrol" setup the Colombians have there. I see I'm not the only one who was getting Mad Max vibes here. I'm liking these videos on armored/cavalry units from foreign armies. I'd like to see one about the Rhodesian Armored Corps or maybe the Recon Squadrons of the Force Publique.
I love the South American content its so great, its such a forgotten contient when it comes to weapons, armies and etc. While my favourite armed forces are Peruvians, their PACIPAT, UNIPAT camos are great looking, they have Amx-13 with turrets removed with 3 Kornets-E instead also they had VT-1/MBT2000 Chinese tanks on parades while not eveing buying them nor fielding them again its a great and a interesting nation with interesting arms industry with their Infantry having panzerfaust 3 or FAD experimental rifles looking like a space rifle that isn't fielded anymore
So much effort my country did to obtain peace, but only to realize that with out a right person with the right heart, everything you do will melt away. One day we will know peace Colombia 🇨🇴
Such a shame that Colombians made such awesome and functional Mad Max style units out of necessity. Hope it will help them bring peace and chance for stable life sooner or later.
What if I tell you that the Greek police in the 80s actually had jet black pursuit specials? The notorious " Σ - units" ( yes sigma) The officers was even wearing black leather biker jackets Their job was to mostly deal with bank robbers, biker gangs, and street racing And talking about biker gangs The" Σ " was often working in coordination with the" Z " ( Zita) police's own very very very notorious bikers many of them being ex biker gangs members or as used to brag" if you are not in a list you are not suited for the job "😉
I really liked the military information about the Meteoro group of light cavalry, I am a veteran of the Colombian Army, I would like to add that in Colombia Titan type vehicles are manufactured (armored and artillery buses), the Marine Corps also has a platoon of road safety 🚌💂🐎
As a Brazilian it's quite ironic seeing our neighbors suffering from lack of government reach/authority cause here the problem is the complete opposite: the state knows EVERYTHING, nothing can run or hide from the state, the criminals that exist and are powerful are allied with the government in a certain way, the state is onipresent in our lives. It's impressive how even though we brazilians are culturally similar to our neighbors our politics are diametrically different, maybe that's the reason Brazil remained a whole state from the amazon rainforest to the southern steppes in the first place.
Well done Battle Order, well done. I frankly find your videos about the minor armies very interesting. I really loved especially how well-timed your humor was especially the "most truck-looking truck" and i find this doctrine very interesting. Fun fact, the usage of these trucks for military operations gives me Mad Max vibes.
I am from Colombia and I am 16 years old, I live in a city where the A.G.C is located, I have experienced some curfews because the guerrilla has hit my city and region Even though this has only happened two or three times in my life, it has still been a pain for me and for everyone who lives here. Greetings.
I was told a story from my cousin on his trip from Barranquilla to Santander that he saw the tractor trailer because of his friends served in the 8th brigade the literally called it out 😂 but good news is that the Ejercito are getting new whips
I moved from the States to Colombia a couple of years ago. My wife who grew up in Bogotá said that before Uribe was president, they never drove anywhere out of the metro Bogotá area when she was a teenager. If you wanted to go to another city, you flew, no exceptions. That’s why Uribe is almost a god to some people in this country. There definitely wouldn’t be tourism here now if he hadn’t cleared the roads.
Hi there, i find this very interesting since i'm colombian. I'm not old enough but everyone like my parents older cousins and so on sometimes memorize about the famed "convoys" which were essentially military escort for civilian convoys to move safely, great video
You should make a vídeo about brazil's army modernization that's been on going for a few year, especially the acquisition of new gear and vehicles, and how they would be implemented.
Might just be nitpicky but that M715 looks like a K311 which is basically a (relatively) newer version of the kaiser jeep so it's not as bad as you'd think.
You are correct. The M715 was actually a very good vehicle when the motor worked. The Koreans replaced the Kaiser 230 Tornado straight six with a Mitsubishi diesel. It also has a looking rear diff and will probably climb a tree. And for full military vehicle pedantry, those aren't M35A2 2-1/2 ton trucks, they are KM-250s. The S. Koreans know how to build a good truck.
Living in a major city like Medellin makes you think that you live in a safe country, but there’s always a video like this that reminds you there are warriors fighting in the jungle to keep us protected against the terrorists every single day. God bless all the soldiers in our country, most experienced and battle hardened warriors in latin America.
Colombian here, our conflict is... All the mdrfcking cold war conflicts in one country 😂 I'm grateful that Battle order gave us a look. And yeah this is and will be Mad Max 💀👌🏼
As a Colombian I’ll say this again. The problem of our country lies within corruption not a weak military. As long as profit from drugs and illicit activities is accessible to corrupt government officials these criminal organizations will continue to exists.
I was totally expecting to see a Mad Max-style, up-armored, tractor trailer-born, highway battlewagon. I really like that background music you're using.
As a Colombian i can tell you, this video is excellent, very well explained. Unfortunately with our low military resources and a big ass country with a nightmare geography, we have to get creative. I have seen some videos with actual combat in remote roads, our soldiers fight like hell. That's why the guerrillas nowadays just paint cars with grafitti and tell some "revolutionary" BS to the civilians and quicky go away, sometimes when things get hot they managed to burn down some trucks, but is not like the 90's or early 2000's, those were terrible times...
Bro low military resources the defense budget is 10 billion USD, the second largest in LATAM, the geography is an excuse to the poor procurement of equipment due to corruption.
@@viceralman8450 still is low for a Country with 56 million people with huge mountains and jungles. Colombia is not an easy country to keep together, we are a country of countries, the USA already knows that jungle warfare is the worst one and we didn't have a strong and advanced military industry, all high tech weapons and equipment must be imported and that's not cheap either....
Driving through Colombia with friend, he would always give a thumbs up to any military or police inspection point. He said it was a way of saying "No terrorists back there!"
This video is hilarious, I'm Colombian, most people living in the cities can turn off the TV and forget about war forever, it's mostly a rural narc economy and that's it, this highway strategy is cute, but President Uribe is mostly know here for creating a paramilitary army that became uncontrollable stealing more lands, killing more people and violating more women than any organization has ever done in the history of this country, the guy was listed by the american defence intelligence agency as member of the Medellin Cartel, most of his government staff and associates are dead or in jail, and he is in free and incredibly rich, with a personal army of five hundred bodyguards following him everywhere always fearing a vengeance than no one dares to deliver.
Funny since the paramilitary were so strong in the 90´s and essentially dismantled during the Uribe years 2002-2010. I guess you really know your country and never understood that paramilitary are the consequence not the cause of guerrilla activity.

My wife who grew up in Bogotá said that before Uribe was president, they never drove anywhere out of the metro Bogotá area when she was a teenager. If you wanted to go to another city, you flew, no exceptions. That’s why Uribe is almost a god to some people in this country. There definitely wouldn’t be tourism here now if he hadn’t cleared the roads.
guy cleaned the country at a high price, but still, he did it.
He's a criminal and a fraud, and the very same reason those armed groups still exist
Wow Colombian here surprised we are on here very cool 😎 🇨🇴
PLEASE, more videos about Colombian army
Colombian armored cavalry is on the to-do list
Hi there, i find this very interesting since i'm colombian. I'm not old enough but everyone like my parents older cousins and so on sometimes memorize about the famed "convoys" which were essentially military escort for civilian convoys to move safely, great video
You should make a vídeo about brazil's army modernization that's been on going for a few year, especially the acquisition of new gear and vehicles, and how they would be implemented.
Love the outro music! I just recently discovered Charli Morgan myself.
This video was my introduction to your channel, an easy subscribe.
Might just be nitpicky but that M715 looks like a K311 which is basically a (relatively) newer version of the kaiser jeep so it's not as bad as you'd think.
I believe those M715s are actually Korean K311/KM450s. Its a slightly more modern license built copy of the M715 still in production.
Its unbelievable how many KM450s are out there. I swear if its not in Europe, its most likely a Korean KM450 than an American M715.
You are correct. The M715 was actually a very good vehicle when the motor worked. The Koreans replaced the Kaiser 230 Tornado straight six with a Mitsubishi diesel. It also has a looking rear diff and will probably climb a tree.
And for full military vehicle pedantry, those aren't M35A2 2-1/2 ton trucks, they are KM-250s. The S. Koreans know how to build a good truck.
Columbia out here fighting in the fury road
WITNESSED
ColOmbia*
That was actually a really good Australian accent mate 👍 well done
Bro this shit needs to be in the next mad max. Its honestly sick!
Living in a major city like Medellin makes you think that you live in a safe country, but there’s always a video like this that reminds you there are warriors fighting in the jungle to keep us protected against the terrorists every single day. God bless all the soldiers in our country, most experienced and battle hardened warriors in latin America.
Most truck looking truck that ever trucked... Sounds like hell of a truck 👌
THE COLOMBIAN ARMY HAS BEEN REINFORCED WITH A DREADNOUGHT 🗣🔥🗣
Colombian here, our conflict is... All the mdrfcking cold war conflicts in one country 😂
I'm grateful that Battle order gave us a look.
And yeah this is and will be Mad Max 💀👌🏼
Colombia is just mad max at this point
was... I haven´t seen those trucks in years
Yeah, it's like living in a Madmax movie but located in a jungle in the middle of a mountain range.
As a Colombian I’ll say this again. The problem of our country lies within corruption not a weak military. As long as profit from drugs and illicit activities is accessible to corrupt government officials these criminal organizations will continue to exists.
As a Colombian I appreciate the attention to detail and work you put into your research, also loved the jokes. insta sub.
2:26 that's the bus I take to go to work every day! Jajajajajajaja
Actually that specific one belongs to a friend
This is incredible work ❤ gracias 🙏🏽
ngl sounds like something out of the next Mad Max. Pretty neat.
The Kodiak is a pretty darn truck lookin' truck for what it's worth. I also love that thing so I'm a little biased
*Sad facts about the reality concerning the instability of Colombia.*
I was totally expecting to see a Mad Max-style, up-armored, tractor trailer-born, highway battlewagon. I really like that background music you're using.
I met the commandant of the Columbian marine corps at boot camp last week
Incredibly well researched. Amazing job.
This actually sounds like what happened in The Mad Max novelization
It looks like the armoured truck in death race
Colombian here. first time seen one of your videos and i like it, has quality also very interesting
I had no idea my country did this. It is amazing.
you get max respect for aussie references.
Wow that really is the most looking truck that has ever trucked!
So they went Mad Max but with a lot less sand.
This is literally mad max 1 plot
off topic but at 1:54 there's a dude with an mpik(-m probably judging by everyone behind him) with a galil mag in it lol
Hell yeah, Charli Morgan's Lip Gloss and Lasers is an absolute banger!
Thank you! 🤍
As a Colombian i can tell you, this video is excellent, very well explained. Unfortunately with our low military resources and a big ass country with a nightmare geography, we have to get creative. I have seen some videos with actual combat in remote roads, our soldiers fight like hell. That's why the guerrillas nowadays just paint cars with grafitti and tell some "revolutionary" BS to the civilians and quicky go away, sometimes when things get hot they managed to burn down some trucks, but is not like the 90's or early 2000's, those were terrible times...
Bro low military resources the defense budget is 10 billion USD, the second largest in LATAM, the geography is an excuse to the poor procurement of equipment due to corruption.
@@viceralman8450 still is low for a Country with 56 million people with huge mountains and jungles. Colombia is not an easy country to keep together, we are a country of countries, the USA already knows that jungle warfare is the worst one and we didn't have a strong and advanced military industry, all high tech weapons and equipment must be imported and that's not cheap either....
@@colombianguy8194 Its the fourth largest budget in the Americas after the USA, Brazil and Canada.
Driving through Colombia with friend, he would always give a thumbs up to any military or police inspection point. He said it was a way of saying "No terrorists back there!"
Another interesting video. Thanks Sir
most truck looking truck killed me haha
This video is hilarious, I'm Colombian, most people living in the cities can turn off the TV and forget about war forever, it's mostly a rural narc economy and that's it, this highway strategy is cute, but President Uribe is mostly know here for creating a paramilitary army that became uncontrollable stealing more lands, killing more people and violating more women than any organization has ever done in the history of this country, the guy was listed by the american defence intelligence agency as member of the Medellin Cartel, most of his government staff and associates are dead or in jail, and he is in free and incredibly rich, with a personal army of five hundred bodyguards following him everywhere always fearing a vengeance than no one dares to deliver.
Funny since the paramilitary were so strong in the 90´s and essentially dismantled during the Uribe years 2002-2010. I guess you really know your country and never understood that paramilitary are the consequence not the cause of guerrilla activity.
